Yes, you can get tow insurance in Ontario. There are a few but this one looks like the best.

I did have tow insurance on my last boat however that company went out of business. As you said, Old Ironmaker , in Canada it is law that you have to assist. I have towed several boats in and last year was my turn. My brand new still under warrantee boat decided to break down in the middle of the lake. I flagged down some fishermen who were happy to get me to shore.
As a side note, my issue was a bad connection to the gas pump. The marina who fixed it said definitely a defect and warranty issue. Stingray said not their problem as it was wiring and Mercury did the wiring, Mercury not their problem as Stingray did the wiring at the plant. Fortunately it was a cheep fix but still frustrating all the same. Still like my boat though just a little ticked with Stingray the company.
